March 8th ~ What Have YOU Done to Get Debt FREE ?

One of the biggest reasons for creating MommyLuvs2save was to create a community of moms and dads who want to help their family save money when buying essentials in order to free up money for debt repayment. My own family has paid off over $111,500 in consumer debt including credit cards, student loan debt and 2 vehicles. I am a teacher at heart. I want to use the skills that I have learned to help YOU ditch debt. I want to encourage each of you in your efforts so that one day you can feel the freedom of being debt free. I’m not quite there yet either (we still have a mortgage) so I need encouragement as well

It can be very difficult to pay down debt. There are many temptations to spend money. We live in a culture that encourages debt and spending. In addition, expenses come up and there never seems to be any extra money for paying down debt. I want to urge each of you to participate in a challenge. Just leave a comment about one positive step you’ve taken for your family each day. Did you eat in instead of going out? Did you save money at the grocery store? Did you pay extra on your credit card? Leave a comment below and we will cheer one another on every day and every step of the way.

* I will also be sharing my progress from the day prior.

My Progress: I hurt my knee somehow the other day, so that’s not been fun. I had so many things I wanted to do yesterday, but they all got put on hold for the most part. I feel a little better this morning, which is a start. I have deals I want to do at Rite Aid and CVS, so maybe I can make it there. I did manage to make dinner at home, but I assure you it was a struggle. The girls had lacrosse practice. I drove them to that. I worked a little on Ro’s resume for him and that was about it for the day. I did manage to do all of my Bing searches and I earned a few Swagbucks.

I am a mom who has paid off $111,500 in debt in less than 4 years by saving money at the stores and putting all of our extra $ on debt. Subscribe to my FREE Daily Newsletter so that you can get my free updates and NEVER miss a deal. Thanks for visiting!
